Watched this last night round at my brother's house, as he had bought a bottle of their beer to sample. Beautifully clear, and quite pleasant, the strange thing about it it that there is almost no taste of hops, either in bitterness or aroma.
Normally brewers use two types of hops: bittering hops, added early in the boil to allow the robust and tangy alpha acids plenty of time to be released, and aroma hops, added late so the delicate and fragrant beta acids can emerge but aren't destroyed.
It may have been tight editing, but the boys are only shown adding one lot of hops to their brew, early in the boil. Could it be that they only used aroma hops, and that they added them at the wrong stage in the brewing process?
